They throw me in the cell with a touch-starved villain.

The guards tell him I'm a peace offering from the Carletti family. He tells them he doesn't kill for the Carlettis anymore—and throws a bed frame at the door to prove it. That's how badly he doesn't want a fourth cellmate.

Nobody will tell me what happened to the first three.

I'm a scrawny Uni dropout, handcuffed and beaten to a pulp, locked in with an animal like Barrett Rowes. I crossed the Carlettis badly enough that they want me in the ground, and handing me to Barrett gets them a corpse and a favour in one delivery. And there's nothing I can do about that except surrender and have a full-blown panic attack.

Then Barrett puts his hands on me, and they're firm but somehow gentle. He coaxes me to breathe with him, and his low, rumbling voice makes my body obey faster than it ever listened to me. He looks at me like I'm something worth ruining slowly instead of all at once.

I should be planning how to survive him.

Instead I'm wondering what it'll take to make him keep me.

Thrown to the Ex-Hitman is a dark MM mafia romance featuring forced proximity with a touch-starved villain, a wrongly convicted young man, and a gritty prison. If you love possessive mafia men, insta-lust, power imbalance, and all the red flags, this book is for you.

Prison Break meets The Godfather, with a hitman who refuses to kill and a lot more spice. Perfect for fans of Leighton Greene and Jamie Harlock.

Book 1 of an ongoing-couple trilogy and ends on a happy for now.
